The phrase "a decrease in local" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when discussing a reduction in something that is specific to a local area or community.
Example: "The report indicated a decrease in local wildlife populations due to habitat loss."
Alternatives: "a reduction in local" or "a decline in local".
The bipolar cells are of two kinds—"on" and "off"—responding to either an increase or a decrease in local light intensity.
As a result, land abandonment is contributing to a decrease in local species richness and a decrease in rare and endemic species.
While most of the studies showed a decrease in local recurrence rate, especially in stage-III/N2 tumors after postoperative radiotherapy, no impact could be shown on overall survival.
The legislators, supported by the other members of the delegation, said that state records based on the city's own financial statements reflected a decrease in local contributions to the district, to $114.2 million during the 2002-3 school year from $124.7 million during the 1999-2000 school year.
Results revealed that a decrease in local CH2O+OH and CO+OH reaction rates coincide with the depletion of OH radicals in the vicinity of the combustion product stream.
The decrease in Cdl, which can result from a decrease in local dielectric constant and/or an increase in the thickness of the electric double layer[40], suggested that CO molecules function by adsorption at the metal/solution interface.
Results showed that, for supercritical fluids natural circulation system, an increase in the system pressure and the local resistance coefficient in the cold section, and a decrease in the local resistance coefficient in the hot section could enhance the system stability.
It appears that manipulation results in a decrease in bilateral local electromyographic activity in the painful motion segment during the application of the mechanical stimulus; however, a statistically significant decrease was not found in the control segment.
As the monomer is oxidised, there is a decrease in the local pH in the vicinity of the electrode and this causes the HVPA to precipitate from solution.
The overall effect of these interactions consists of a decrease in the local strain rate and in the stoichiometric scalar dissipation rate, which increases the burning rate of the diffusion flame.
A decrease in the local dielectric constant and/or an increase in the thickness of the electrical double layer are responsible for the decrease in Cdl values.
